BROADWAY HEADLINERS
June 16 - June 27, 2008: 10:00 am - 3:00 pm
Students age 10 - 17 are invited to audition for a summer
musical theater workshop. We are looking for "triple threat performers" who
can sing, act, and dance. Only a limited number of performers will be accepted
into the program. During the two-week camp, students will put together an intense
Broadway style musical review and perform it for one night only on June 27 at 8:00
pm. Once the summer workshop is over, the performers will automatically become a
part of "Headliners" the official performance ambassadors of San Pedro Playhouse.
HEADLINERS will go out into the community to help spread the word about San Pedro
Playhouse and its wonderful, upcoming 2008-2009 Season.
